Tillägg den 29 september 2009: Peter Kim har sammanställt en wiki som i dagsläget innehåller nästan 1.500 företags närvaro i sociala medier. Det är en bra lista på case, som dessutom verkar uppdateras och kompletteras någorlunda regelbundet. Du hittar den här (notera att wikin består av tre separata listor, om ca 500 länkar i varje).
Tillägg den 10 mars 2010: Besök också sajten 365 Social Media Cases, som under 365 dagar publicerar 365 fallstudier inom sociala medier – lyckade såväl som misslyckade.

En Google-sökning på marknadsföring i sociala medier (utan citationstecken) ger ca 150 000 träffar. Det är tveklöst ett hett ämne. Och själv skrev jag ett inlägg om det för några månader sedan. Men var finns alla bra exempel? Vilka företag marknadsför sig i sociala medier – och vad gör de där?
Med hjälp av Joakim Jardenberg, Daniel Nüüd och Erik Forsberg på Mindpark (där det finns många kloka inlägg i ämnet) har jag försökt att hitta bra listor över företag som deltar i sociala medier. Känner du till fler än de som presenteras nedan (helst med fokus på svenska eller nordiska företag) får du gärna dela med dig genom att kommentera det här inlägget.
Jag kan inte validera kvaliteten på exemplen nedan, men jag är tämligen övertygad om att en länkodyssé kommer att vara både inspirerande och lärorik.

2. Svenska företag som Twittrar:
Den andra listan finns på Henriks blogg och sammanställer svenska företag på Twitter. Du hittar den här.

3. Svenska företag i sociala medier (ett frö):
Avslutningsvis är den tredje listan ett frö till en sammanställning på svenskrelaterade företags deltagande i sociala medier. Jag vet att det finns många fler exempel (några av dem finns i listorna ovan). Därför uppmanar jag dig att dels komplettera i en kommentar, dels att vidarebefordra listorna eller länken till det här inlägget till alla som du tror kan bidra.
Och vill du ta på dig rollen att en gång för alla göra en komplett sammanställning, och därefter underhålla listan, tala om det. Jag saknar både kompetensen och tiden för att göra det. Men jag vet att många människor i beslutsfattande positioner skulle uppskatta möjligheten att få tal del av hur andra gör.
Alltså, här är fröet till listan över svenska (eller svenskrelaterade) företag som deltar i sociala medier:
- Acne
- Brio
- Electrolux
- Newsroom– där finns länkar till Electrolux på:
- YouTube
- Flickr
- Newsroom– där finns länkar till Electrolux på:
- IKEA(se även i listorna ovan)
- Kullander
- Scania
- Social Media Newsroom– där finns länkar till Scania på:
- YouTube
- Flickr
- Social Media Newsroom– där finns länkar till Scania på:
- Svenska Dagbladet
- Sverige (Svenska institutet)
- YouTube

- Second Life (där Sverige har en officiell ambassad)
- SVT
- Sydsvenskan
- TheTivoli

Tillägg den 8 maj, 2009: Per Torberger mejlade mig en länk till Vitrues ”100 top social brands”. IKEA ligger på plats 71 och är det enda svenska varumärket på listan. Överst hittar vi iPhone, följt av CNN, Apple, Disney och Xbox.
